When my mum calls me down stairs, I cant say two minutes, or I’ll be right there any more, because she has the new ‘obey your parents’ software and she has programmed it into me using the new state of the art ‘Windows child care’, designed by Steven Hawkins Jr two moon falls ago, sorry years ago to the common folk. This has taken a lot of getting used to but I am sort of getting the hang of it now. Well I don’t have much choice, unless I want a ten cyber- hertz shock in my ear.
Mum has made me and Callum a full intergalactic breakfast, well she didn’t make it, and well it’s not exactly a breakfast, it is one of the new breakfast- pills designed by Kellogg’s, for the people who cant afford to stand around cooking, or for those who cant be bothered to spend a long amount of time eating. I personally don’t like them, but I suppose you just have to learn to live with it, after all it’s hardly the biggest change I have had to adapt to in my life.
As I leave my house with Callum I can see that Venus still hasn’t set to the west, this is the first sign that shows that summer is coming at last. Over the last thirty odd years or so, a few planets have gradually been pulled closer to earth, this has happened due to the powerful gravitational pull, created by the Intergalactic atmosphere which has grown stronger and stronger as the earth has increased in weight.
As we get on to the bus, I get a message on my telephonic headset from my girlfriend, Lyn. She asks me if I want to go out for a drink tonight, I send her one back saying I would be glad to. In the message I add in an image of a love heart. This will get me in her good books, hopefully. Now just a simple matter of getting to the hairdressers for a laser cut, then to the robot repair shop for Callum’s new hood, then to get back home. And then I have the simple task of babysitting till five. Then I am out with my Fembot.
Futuristic Story
As we arrive at the hairdressers there is only one free machine, I tell Callum to get in while I wait for an opening. This isn’t a very long process as it only takes five minutes for any hair cut imaginable. We are both in and out with fresh laser cuts within ten minutes, and we are on our way to the repair shop.
When we arrive there is a big queue, this is due to the annual free upgrades promoted buy schools, for any Robot to get a free brand new body suit if you achieve what’s known as an I.A.F.R.D.H.C which stands for ‘Intergalactic Achievement For Robots Driving Hover Cars’ which is the equivalent of a driving licence, to the common folk.
It takes about two hours to get seen to. But when we were we was out in a matter of minutes. As the new hoods are interchangeable and can be changed with the press of a button, Callum Brought two, the main one is just a standard hood, But the second one he buys has a transparent metal called metaparent designed for learner hover cars. It is a new trend and all the younger robots seem to have them. I don’t see what the big fuss is. All they do is show off your circuit board and memory chip.
When we were waiting for the bus I saw my dad, this was quite a relief, because the bus didn’t look like it was coming. He picked us up and we were home in only five minutes as he is a police man and has a siren on his super hover car, lucky or what. As my dad was home that meant that I didn’t have to baby-sit. This was good as it meant I had time to have a proper dinner before I went out with Lyn instead of another boring meal pill.
Getting ready is quite annoying as the cyber shower was broken, so I had to get washed the old fashioned way and have a good old body wash with a flannel and soap. I get to Lyn’s at just past seven and we make our way down town. We decide to go to the new joint in town, it is called king Harry the thirteenth. We both had a really good night and I dropped her home for eleven like her mum asked me. And then I drive home.
Well I guess its time for bed, where is my deep slumber disk then?
